LYRICS VIBES OF THE TIME


Original guerilla Tony Rebel ah talk
And you know me always a talk from mi heart
You shoulda know that man


Chorus:
There's a vibes about the time
And it's real and I can feel it every day
How they choose to refuse the good news
And then lose and go astray
But I see clear and I can hear of all the fear
That is now plaguing all mankind
Is only Jah can really help us inna this ya revelation time
Lend me oonuh ears nuh
Full time you listen
Exercise righteousness and make we get God blessing


The war fi stop now
Whether jungle or garden
If a problem occur
Make we sit down and reason
If you a shower you can go pray every hour
Unite with Spanglers and make we fight for Black Power
If you nub do that you know say
Dog nyam yuh supper
Look inna yourself and elevate from the gutter


Chorus


Everyone ah feel it
Not only you, she or him
'Cause this is not regional
It's a global thing
And most things whe you see ah the consequence of sin
But it's good to know that everything is everything
The signs of the time should not make you panic
In the Bible every line show that it is prophetic
All things must take place before thy Kingdom come
So it was written, so it must be done


Chorus


Who nuh see clear haf fi hear
This yah vibes whe we a share
And who aware be prepare 'cause the end is near
Have no fear if Jah a steer
Just relax inna yuh chair
And he is here and he is there
And ready to take care
Chorus
Lord people always wrong yes and nuh want take the blame
Nuff a play hypocrite just fe get good name
Man behavior against mankind bring sorrow and pain
But it's good to know that God love us the same
When me check the diseases and the catastrophes
Whe broke out like wild fire in all the countries
We shouldn't be fighting our brothers with our energies
'Cause them de kind of thing is our worst enemies


Chorus

For If Jah, veteran conscious singjay Tony Rebel enlists a number of major Jamaican producers -- Philip "Fatis" Burrell, Bobby "Digital" Dixon, and Donovan Germain -- and comes up with a solid, unified disc. It's also pretty typical of this reggae epoch in that Rebel, aside from his early trailblazer role in bringing roots lyrical messages into the dancehall context, is less a true original than an artist adept at creatively recycling proven elements. "Jah Is by My Side" starts off with largely programmed backing (it's reprised later in an acoustic mix), but it's a very effective blend of lyrical and musical hooks. "Love Fountain" is built on Bob Marley's "So Much Trouble in the World" with Rebel's singing on the passionate pleading tip, and "Celebrate Life" introduces a gospel-soul flavor. "Africa" works off Marley's "One Drop" rhythm, just as the menacing "Warning" goes off "Heathen" with fuzzed-out psychedelic lead guitar, dubby arrangement, and nicely harmonized voices with Rebel close to the rough, hoarse Bounty Killer/Capleton mode. "Jah Will Never Let Us Down" gets into that almost '50s R&B dancehall style with DJ delivery, typical Rebel in pairing a strong lyrical message with more fun music to connect with the youth. "Know Jah" uses a very familiar keyboard bass rhythm (probably Studio One vintage) but dubbed out and chopped up, and the same bassline, this time complete, anchors "Bible Chant." There are guest shots from Marcia Griffiths (the buoyant, Zion-bound "Ready to Go") and Mutabaruka (the Ethiopia-themed "Mama Love"), with the latter triggering a string of electronic, programmed arrangements. The most interesting is "Keep Your Joy," with its aura of synth menace and oddball arrangement, but there's no denying If Jah is getting repetitious by the end. So what do you have here? Three pieces built on Marley songs, two mixes of one song, and two more with the same classic riddim foundation, some roots messages and veteran cameos to appeal to reggae old-timers, and some DJ delivery and electronic arrangements for dancehall youth. If Jah has a little bit of something for everybody, but it also makes you wonder a little where Rebel's originality falls among all this familiar synthesis.
